Netflix is a Joke is returning to Los Angeles, with the biggest names in stand-up slated to hit stages across the city.
Festival organizers announced the lineup Tuesday morning, featuring several A-list comedians, including Bill Burr, Ali Wong, Nicole Byer, Mo Amer, Theon Von, Kevin Hart, Ilana Glazer, and several others, performing May 4-10 at venues across L.A. The week-long comedy takeover of the city will feature 350 live events, including stand-up, variety shows, top comedy podcasts, tapings, exclusive events, and screenings, as well as appearances by stars from various Netflix series and films.
Some of the festival’s highlights include Colombian star Feid and Saturday Night Live cast member Marcello Hernández teaming up to bring together the largest Spanish-language comedy show ever to hit the Hollywood Bowl. The festival will also include a variety show paying tribute to the late Pee-Wee Herman, and a reunion of the musical comedy duo Flight of the Conchords (Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie).
There will also be an element of charity throughout the festival, with events like “Night of Too Many Stars,” hosted by Jon Stewart and featuring comics performing to raise money for NEXT for Autism, a national organization that provides programs and support for people living with autism. Deon Cole will also host a “Comedy for the Community: Supporting Altadena Eaton Fire Relief,” a nightly show designed to spark recovery, deliver essential laughter, and help folks learn how to get involved with local organizations.
Tickets for events spanning 35 venues, including the Hollywood Bowl, The Greek Theatre, Intuit Dome, and iconic comedy hubs such as The Comedy Store, Laugh Factory, and Hollywood IMPROV, will go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 23, via NetflixIsAJokeFest.com.
“What makes this fest so special is the sense of community—it’s a rare moment where the comedy industry and the fans come together in one place,” said Tracey Pakosta, Netflix vice president of comedy series. “We’re not just putting on shows; we’re creating one-of-a-kind experiences that celebrate the range, depth, and sheer brilliance of the comedy world right now.”
This year’s festival will be shorter than previous iterations, down to six days from 11, but the roster of comedians and entertainment is still jam-packed. At the time of publication dates and venues haven’t been released, but more details will be included upon ticket purchase.
